I agree so much. The human nature. We tried to account for this in my site. We know most will only read the first sentences. We tried to write this way. This is also one of Pete’s issues. That is why his specs seem more stringent. Example The logic is if I tell you it needs 100% humidity you will shoot for that and say well 80% is close. So if we give the minimum 70% people will assume 55 or 60% is good. This is human nature.I
I love how you think all people are gonna read through everything though... Have you not seen the threads with dying chams even threads where we have provided direct feedback prior but they do not make the changes we say???? I mean lets be honest about 25% are going to read everything, 25% are going to read half of the info, 25% are going to skim through, and then you have the 25% that will look at the pictures...
IMO when you can simply post a correct link with image that clearly states veiled tested is in the end going to serve more people.
You are a reader/researcher. You look into everything. MOST DO NOT. That is honestly my issue with this other content being used here within the forum.
You also have a Panther that will never eat its plants. You do not know what it is to deal with consistent plant eating. I still worry even with the "veiled tested" plants that I do use. While it does not immediately kill him, I have no idea what possible long term issues he could have or potential damage to organ function. Because this has not been studied.
Now then as far as chameleonschool.com having incorrect info....
https://www.chameleonschool.com/chameleon-diet/
WRONG INFO ON SUPPLEMENTS> they say calcium without D3 instead of Calcium with d3 every other week. Link above and image where I highlighted below.

They also suggest Butter worms... And do not say a thing about the potential for allergic reaction. They only thing he says is they are "high in fat so treats only"
Their recommended feeding is 15 feeders twice a day until 6 months then reducing to 10 medium feeders every day. Then 6 full sized insects every 2-3 days for 12 months and older....
Ok so lets talk about how inaccurate this is. Veileds should only be fed 2-3 insects 3 days a week. So total for the week is 6-9. If I were to feed Beman his plan of 6 full sized dubia that would be 18 or 12 full sized a week. He would be so overweight on this persons advice. Also Beman would not be able to take down a full sized dubia without gagging for 5 minutes.
He makes no mention of females needing to be fed differently. ALSO NOT ALL SPECIES ARE THE SAME. Feeding requirements change from a veiled to a Parsons. And size of feeders as well.
So this is all off 1 page of his site... Just 1 And I found incorrect supplementing, feeding amounts, and feeder recommendation that can cause allergic reactions.
While this person attempts to provide correct info this is strictly an affiliate pay website. Everything he links are affiliate links where he gets paid for every person that clicks the links and orders. It is horribly laid out with sub par content.
Another thing I find extremely interesting is this site was created in 2021. So is this your site that you run and make money off of? Because I can not figure out why you would be posting it and recommending it over other sites that are totally accurate like Chameleon academy.
